Panel Upgrade Questions
What are the signs that an electrical panel is due for replacement?
Limited breaker space, recurring problems, and insufficient capacity for new equipment are common clues. A proper look at the panel is more useful than guessing from age alone.
Can you upgrade my home from 100 amps to 200 amps?
Yes. Brandon will inspect the existing service first and walk you through the equipment, timing, and cost involved in upgrading your St. Catharines home.
Can an old fuse box be changed to a breaker panel?
Yes. Brandon can inspect the fuse equipment and explain what replacing it with a breaker panel would involve.
Can a panel upgrade make my home ready for EV charging?
It can. The right solution depends on the charger, current service, and other electrical loads in your St. Catharines home.
What is the usual timeline for replacing an electrical panel?
Many straightforward replacements are completed efficiently, but service changes or unexpected existing conditions can add time.
How long will the house be without electricity during the work?
There will be an outage during the changeover. The exact timing depends on the job, and Brandon will review it with you beforehand.
Can I get a clear quote before upgrading the panel?
Yes. Once the existing setup and scope are understood, Brandon provides a straightforward project price without hidden fees.
Do you complete panel work for commercial properties?
Brandon can help with suitable light-commercial panel and service work. Call to discuss the building and the capacity you need.
Can I call about an urgent breaker panel problem?
Absolutely. If there’s heat, smoke, sparking, or a burning smell, stay away from the panel and call right away.
How long is the warranty on your panel upgrade work?
The workmanship is covered for one year. If something doesn’t seem right, call Brandon directly.
Can you upgrade the panel in my St. Catharines home before a renovation?
Yes. Brandon can consider the planned electrical loads while sizing and planning the service.

Yes. Brandon lives and works in St. Catharines and can be reached directly at 905-321-2456.
